Annual maintenance/inspection items for merc racing optimax. ????
What should I be doing, inspecting, or verifying on the unit annually? I want to take good care and will be maintaining it myself. Don"t want to overlook or neglect anything!!! Use it in freshwater, run it LOTS, it is new and I would like to go over it from the skeg on up. Beyond gear oil, grease job.

What products would you use? Is this something mercury recommends? fuel additives I presume? Oh i should replace the compressor's air filter in the flywheel cover as well.
